The Multiple Sclerosis Drugs market in Estonia has shown significant growth in recent years.
Customer preferences: Patients in Estonia prefer disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) that are effective in reducing relapse rates and delaying disease progression. They also prefer oral medications over injectables, which has led to an increase in the demand for oral DMTs.
Trends in the market: The market is witnessing an increasing trend towards the use of biosimilars, which are cheaper alternatives to the original biologic drugs. This trend is driven by the government's efforts to reduce healthcare costs. Another trend is the shift towards personalized medicine, where treatments are tailored to individual patients based on their genetic makeup.
Local special circumstances: Estonia has a small population of around 1.3 million, which limits the size of the market. However, the country has a well-developed healthcare system and a high level of healthcare spending per capita. The government has implemented a centralized procurement system for drugs, which has helped to reduce costs and improve access to medicines.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: Estonia has a strong economy with a high level of economic freedom and a favorable business environment. The country has a well-educated workforce and a high level of digitalization, which has facilitated the adoption of new technologies in healthcare. The aging population and the increasing prevalence of multiple sclerosis are expected to continue driving demand for MS drugs in the country.
